This is very impressive.

Gosh, there's even people in the balcony?

That's extraordinary.

My name is Eric Metaxus.

Welcome to Socrates in the city.

I am thrilled that so many of you turned up.

And by the way, if it's your first time at Socrates in the

city, would you raise your hand? Oh my gosh. Am I standing in the right place? This is

my standing in the right place? This is all being filmed. It's making me nervous. Wow,

that's impressive.

So I could tell you anything about Socrates in the city, and what would you say?

Right?

Gosh.

You know, I assume that you wouldn't just come to a situation like this and not know that we single people out to come on the stage and sing and all this kind of stuff. You don't ever want to stumble into a play, but I know you're prepared for that. So who shall I call up? Let's see. Yes, sir, you. No, I won't do that. I won't do that. This is a very different Socrates in the city. Usually, there's a number of things that make the Socrates different from other Socrates in the cities, or is it Socrates is in the city?

What's the plural of Socrates in the city? I don't know.

In any case, we normally do them in these gorgeous private clubs. And we said, really need to mix it up a little bit and do it in, you know,

a former parking garage, something like that. We said, where can we find a place that's just

just ugly enough to take the attention, you know, off of the room and on to the people who

are talking? And so we were looking for a place like that. We couldn't found it.

We found a place a little too ugly, but, you know, the price was right, so we grabbed it.

And here we are.

This is some of you, I'm not sure what they're applauding.
